I can cook well. I also like cook. however, I hate to wash the dishes! I sometimes invite my friends to my home. We cook and drink and talk about everything. It's great. But I'm feel bored and tired when I can see a mass of dirty dishes. They look terrible :(

Hi Tkonlinevn, Same here, I hate to wash the dishes. I find that the soap will make my hands peel and it oily. I don't like the greasy feeling it leaves my hand with after finishing with them. Plus, those food remains. It feels yucky washing them.

Hi, I agree with you,washing dishes is taking lot of times. However, I still have to do it. I do my cooking everyday and of course,for the cleaning part, I have to do it myself. Sometimes, my husband will help me up in washing all those plates after we have dinner. Washing plates are fine with me. The most I hate is wash the pots and woks. Especially when the sticky part,I have to use scrub to keep scrubing it away.

Very few people like to wash dishes. Negotiate with your partner to wash them. Buy a dishwasher. It sanitizes the dishes as well.

hehe i don't like to wash dishes either. When we have visitors coming over, I am the dishwasher. I always have to wash a huge pile of dishes. What you can do is to think about something nice while you wash it. When I am stading cleaning up the stuff, i think about my favourite show, what i plan to do tomorrow, what i have to study, etc. It will make the time pass pretty fast instead on just focusing on the dishes. When i am very busy with school work, mom washes the dishes and she talks to the visitors so she enjoys her time as well.

I think most of the people would not deny this fact that we love being in the kitchen, we love cooking too but we hate washing the dishes, I hate it too and sometimes I am left with no choice but to stand infront of the sink and wash the dishes, my partner sometimes left me which is a great thing for me as I get a relieve.

I feel exactly the same way. Cooking for me is an art, craft, and pleasure. Cleaning is a chore, punishment, and drain on my energy.

I had a friend teach me this and it works so well I hope you try it. When you start to cook, the very first thing you do is make a sink of dishwater then WASH THE DISHES AS YOU GO! Dirty a dish, wash it! This will become such a habit that you will find you are washing something that you plan on reusing. When your project is done, so will your dishes and you will not have the yucky mess to do at the end. If you are having trouble with the dish soap drying your hands, switch brands. I can not use Dawn dish soap, and I don't like Ivory or Dove because they leave my hands feeling greasy. I use AJax but that can be drying too. My suggestion is that you keep switching brands until you find one htat you like.

In hmy house, there is no autromatic dishwasher, so i am the dishwasher. i do not look forward to this daily task. i love cooking and baking and being busy in the kitchen. Washing dishes is last on my list in the kitchen. it would be so nice just to vlose my eyes and open them to see no dishes in the sink. Washing dirty dishes isn't what i would like to be doing with my day. Unfortunately, i know that if i don't wash the dishes nobody else will be likely to do it.

yes, washing the dishes is quite a chore. i also don't like it too much. especially washing the greasy pans and heavy pots.. maybe you should try using disposable dishes, cups, and spoons whenever you have a party. that way there will be less things to wash.
